The inspiring international bestseller of a seemingly ordinary woman who uses her talent and courage to transform herself first into a prestigious couturier and then into an undercover agent for the Allies during World War II
Between Youth and Adulthood . . .
At age twelve, Sira Quiroga sweeps the atelier floors where her single mother works as a seamstress. At fourteen, she quietly begins her own apprenticeship. By her early twenties she has learned the ropes of the business and is engaged to a modest government clerk. But everything changes when two charismatic men burst unexpectedly into her neatly mapped-out life: an attractive salesman and the father she never knew.
Between War and Peace . . .
With the Spanish Civil War brewing in Madrid, Sira leaves her mother and her fiancé, impetuously following her handsome lover to Morocco. However, she soon finds herself abandoned, penniless, and heartbroken in an exotic land. Among the odd collection of European expatriates trapped there by the worsening political situation back on the Continent, Sira reinvents herself by turning to the one skill that can save her: her gift for creating beautiful clothes.
Between Love and Duty . . .
As England, Germany, and the other great powers launch into the dire conflict of World War II, Sira is persuaded to return to Madrid, where she takes on a new identity to embark upon the most dangerous undertaking of her career. As the preeminent couturier for an eager clientele of Nazi officers’ wives, Sira becomes embroiled in the half-lit world of espionage and political conspiracy rife with love, intrigue, and betrayal.
Already a runaway bestseller across Europe, The Time In Between is one of those rare, richly textured novels that enthrall down to the last page. María Dueñas reminds us how it feels to be swept away by a masterful storyteller.
Maria Dueñas holds a PhD in English Philology and is currently a professor at the University of Murcia. She has also taught at American universities, is the author of several academic articles, and has participated in various educational, cultural, and editorial projects. She is currently writing her second novel.
The last part in Lisbon really ties everything together. I love the slow rhythm in Morocco, that part is my favorite. It is filled with future and possibilities, love and friends.

评分Very well written
评分虽然女主的智商情商都有点捉急...还是很不错的一本书,背景(二战期间)、主题(间谍)和视角(dressmaker)都很有意思
西班牙是君主立宪制国家,这个位于欧洲西南部的美丽国度直至1978年才修订出现行宪法。究其原因,或许不得不归咎于1936年由国民军与长枪党人联手引发的西班牙内战,这场长达3年的血腥内战是自法兰西大革命之后在西欧上演的最大规模的内战,多个国家卷入其中,不仅导致西班...
评分和历史结合得好。这一点确实是功夫活,也是本书最大的看点。作者是学者出身,因此对历史细节非常考究,但作为一本小说来说不太合格。文章可读性尚可,但是行文结构、叙述节奏等尚待推敲。期待读一本精心设计的“小说”的同志们可能会大失所望。 有人把这本和《飘》相提并论。...
评分有趣的是在看完本书之后,我真的在网络上查找了一些书中提到的人物,比如贝格贝尔,比如塞拉诺•苏聂尔,不过可惜的是唯一可以明确查到的就是弗朗哥,他的名字和几个足球球星并列在网络百科上,其他人的名字几乎毫无线索,只有极少的同名者或者公司,如果这些人物真的在历史...
